The Medal of Honor series just doesn't want to end. The somewhat over-crowded World War II shooter genre has just about seen it all, with ubiquitous competent titles. Most of the games in the Medal of Honor series are included in these competent titles, spanning all platforms. The series had it's first entry in 1999, so nearly ten years is plenty of time for refinement. Enter Medal of Honor: Heroes 2, played by Mike Jennings, does this game add another notch of success to the series? The platform is somewhat limited, does that prove too much of a burden? The author shares his opinion.

PSP owners, had enough of using your computer or, more recently, your PS3 to transfer demos, videos and music to your PSP? Is untangling that meter-long USB cable really hurting your hands, leaving them blistered and useless for weeks at a time? Your worries will be over soon!

At GDC today, almost as an offhand note, you'll be able to download anything off the PlayStation store to your PSP from any wi-fi connection! That means less hospital bills and less money spent on bandages.

Btw, I really do love the PS3. Just get me Resistance two and I'll stop complaining.

The general idea about games based on movies is that they suck. Simply put, they are almost always poorly rated and just low-quality titles. That isn't for no reason, of course. Game developers and publishers who make these games are usually on serious time restraints that force them to pump out a game by the movie's release date.

It's difficult to say what defines a game. Obviously, there are lots of different factors, and at GDC this morning there was a conference with three developers who were discussing just that.

What they talk about is actually very, very deep, considering things like the psychology behind gaming, what makes games fun, and what people want out of games these days. Headed by the main developers for flOw and Everyday Shooter, and one other indie developer, this is one of the few things about the gaming industry that makes people who work in it proud to do what they do.

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 was recently released in Australia and has come under fire as it doesn't appear to have any multiplayer options, which is why EA is offering every Australian who bought MOH: Heroes 2 a refund.

EA has also issued an apology to the country for not being able to battle it out online against other gamers.
